Add support for debugging.

Open hcorion opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

Visual Studio Code has a fancy built-in GUI debugger. Perhaps it could be possible to add support for debugging nim code. There are multiple articles about it: https://gist.github.com/flaviut/487be89b8abfae2612e8 http://hookrace.net/blog/what-makes-nim-practical/#debugging-nim

I assume it would consist of copying the existing gdb stuff from the C/C++ Extension and then fixing it around for calling the nim compiler as well.

The current plan is to adopt this extension from Microsoft to allow debug Nim code. Currently this extension allows debug nim code with some weakness and name mangling.
